Today has been quite a long, boring day. As any other day is for me. My life is going at a steady straight line at the moment. But enough about that. Let's talk about fashion, a topic you all know and love. I love to shop, you know that. When I was younger, I actually wanted to be a fashion designer instead of an interior designer. I guess I've always had a knack for design. But for me, it wasn't the designing part that I liked. I'm more of the "put an outfit together and look fabulous" kind of person. What you wear and how you wear it makes you the person you are. 

When I think style, I think of boho chic(very Vanessa Hudgens), girly, grunge, and everything in between. My type of style is a mixture of all of them. Lately, I have been really into the 90's grunge and American Apparel kind of look. And as you all know, shopping can get a little(very) expensive. Having no money because you have a slight(ly large) shopping addiction is something I know all too well. When you love to shop, but love to save money, those two never work hand-in-hand. Also, part of the problem is that I'm not very good at budgeting my money. It's a hard knock life for me. So as a New Years resolution, I want to make sure I budget my money better. How else am I going to shop 'til I drop in Rome during my junior year?

 My all-time favorite stores to shop at are Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, Walmart(Don't judge. They have good leggings), and Hot Topic. Every other store that I am in love with(i.e. PacSun, American Apparel, Victoria's Secret/PINK, Topshop) is way too expensive for a college girl like me. 

I think overall, my favorite colors to wear are black, grey, and white. Very neutral, with a pop of color here and there. Yet if you were to look at my closet right now, there are clothes with colors all over the spectrum. To tell you the truth, I barely even wear them. But something that I find hard to do is figure out what clothes to give away because I am a hoarder. I have clothes I haven't worn for months, yet I can't part ways with it because I've grown attached. So I think I have another task at hand for the new year. Spring cleaning is something that I absolutely love to do. I love to organize. I have to figure out what to keep and what to sell/give away because there's so much wasted space where new clothes can go(not that I have "new clothes" money). Although, for some reason, whenever I buy new clothes, I don't wear them for a long time because I feel like they're too new and I would somehow mess them up. But once the time comes and I finally break out that cute dress I bought two weeks ago, I feel like this:

For the longest time, I've been trying to contact clothing companies like Rad.co, ShopJeen, Delia's, and places like that, asking if I could collaborate with them. Obviously, at this "early" stage of my blog, companies won't be contacting me for a long time. But something I've always wanted to do was make an unboxing haul. I've watched so many unboxing haul videos myself because for some reason, I like watching people show what they bought. But hey, we all gotta start somewhere.

Now that my Christmas shopping is done(for the most part), I can finally focus on saving money for me and my future. Just thinking about what my future could look like makes me smile. You know what else makes me smile?
